+ Cloning and expression of target gene: Expression of Fusion Protein Gene of Interest Recombinant Vector Expression Vector Expression of Fusion Protein

Cloning Process Gene of interest is cut out with restriction enzymes (RE) Host plasmid (circular chromosome) is cut with same REs Gene is inserted into plasmid and ligated with ligase New (engineered) plasmid inserted into bacterium (transform)

Cloning (Details)

Cloning (Details) protein

Recombinant Protein Expression Systems Escherichia coli Other bacteria Pichia pastoris Other yeast Baculovirus Animal cell culture Plants Sheep/cows/humans Cell free Polyhedra

Expression System Selection Choice depends on size and character of protein Large proteins (>100 kD)? Choose eukaryote Small proteins (<30 kD)? Choose prokaryote Glycosylation essential? Choose baculovirus or mammalian cell culture High yields, low cost? Choose E. coli Post-translational modifications essential? Choose yeast, baculovirus or other eukaryote

Which Vector? Must be compatible with host cell system (prokaryotic vectors for prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic vectors for eukaryotic cells) Needs a good combination of strong promoters ribosome binding sites termination sequences affinity tag or solubilization sequences multi-enzyme restriction site

Plasmids and Vectors Circular pieces of DNA ranging in size from 1000 to 10,000 bases Able to independently replicate and typically code for 1-10 genes Often derived from bacterial “mini” chromosomes (used in bacterial sex) May exist as single copies or dozens of copies (often used to transfer antibiotic resistance)

Key Parts to a Vector Origin of replication (ORI) – DNA sequence for DNA polymerase to replicate the plasmid Selectable marker (Amp or Tet) – a gene, when expressed on plasmid will allow host cells to survive Inducible promoter – Short DNA sequence which enhances expression of adjacent gene Multi-cloning site (MCS) – Short DNA sequence that contains many restriction enzyme sites

A Generic Vector

Which Vector? Promoters arabinose systems (pBAD), phage T7 (pET), Trc/Tac promoters, phage lambda PL or PR Tags His6 for metal affinity chromatography (Ni) FLAG epitope tage DYKDDDDK CBP-calmodulin binding peptide (26 residues) E-coil/K-coil tags (poly E35 or poly K35) c-myc epitope tag EQKLISEEDL Glutathione-S-transferase (GST) tags Celluluose binding domain (CBD) tags

Gene Introduction (Bacteria)

Bacterial Transformation

Bacterial Transformation Moves the plasmid into bacterial host Essential to making the gene “actively” express the protein inside the cell 2 routes of transformation CaCl2 + cold shock Electroporation Typical transformation rate is 1 in 10,000 cells (not very efficient) for CaCl2, but 1 in 100 for electroporation

Electroporator 25 microfarads = 2500 V @ 200 ohms for 5 ms

Electroporation Seems to cause disruption in cell membrane Reconstitution of membrane leads to large pores which allow DNA molecules to enter Works for bacteria, yeast and animal cells

Bacterial Systems Advantages Disadvantages Grow quickly (8 hrs to produce protein) High yields (50-500 mg/L) Low cost of media (simple media constituents) Low fermentor costs Difficulty expressing large proteins (>50 kD) No glycosylation or signal peptide removal Eukaryotic proteins are sometimes toxic Can’t handle S-S rich proteins

Cloning & Transforming in Yeast Cells Pichia pastoris

Pichia Pastoris Yeast are single celled eukaryotes Behave like bacteria, but have key advantages of eukaryotes P. pastoris is a methylotrophic yeast that can use methanol as its sole carbon source (using alcohol oxidase) Has a very strong promoter for the alcohol oxidase (AOX) gene (~30% of protein produced when induced)

Pichia Cloning

Pichia Pastoris Cloning Uses a special plasmid that works both in E. coli and Yeast Once gene of interest is inserted into this plasmid, it must be linearized (cut open so it isn’t circular) Double cross-over recombination event occurs to cause the gene of interest to insert directly into P. pastoris chromosome where the old AOX gene used to be Now gene of interest is under control of the powerful AOX promoter

Pichia Systems Advantages More advantages Grow quickly (8 hrs to produce protein) Very high yields (50-5000 mg/L) Low cost of media (simple media constituents) Low fermentor costs Can express large proteins (>50 kD) Glycosylation & signal peptide removal Has chaperonins to help fold “tough” prtns Can handle S-S rich proteins

Baculovirus Expression

Baculovirus Expression Autographica californica multiple nuclear polyhedrosis virus (Baculoviurs) Virus commonly infects insects cells of the alfalfa looper (small beetle) or armyworms (and their larvae) Uses super-strong promoter from the polyhedron coat protein to enhance expression of proteins while virus resides inside the insect cell

Baculovirus Expression ~12 days

Baculovirus (AcMNPV) Cloning Process 5’ 3’ Transfer vector Polyhedrin gene x Cloned gene Cloned gene 5’ 3’ AcMNPV DNA Recombinant AcMNPV DNA

Baculovirus Systems Disadvantages Advantages Grow very slowly (10-12 days for set-up) Cell culture is only sustainable for 4-5 days Set-up is time consuming, not as simple as yeast Can express large proteins (>50 kD) Correct glycosylation & signal peptide removal Has chaperonins to help fold “tough” prtns Very high yields, cheap

Mammalian Expression Systems

Mammalian Cell-line Expression Sometimes required for difficult-to-express proteins or for “complete authenticity” (matching glycosylation and sequence) Cells are typically derived from the Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell line Vectors usually use SV-40 virus, CMV or vaccinia virus promoters and DHFR (dihydrofolate reductase) as the selectable marker gene

Mammalian Expression Gene initially cloned and plasmid propagated in bacterial cells Mammalian cells transformed by electroporation (with linear plasmid) and gene integrates (1 or more times) into random locations within different CHO chromosomes Multiple rounds of growth and selection using methotrexate to select for those cells with highest expression & integration of DHFR and the gene of interest

Methotrexate (MTX) Selection Gene of interest DHFR Transfect dfhr- cells Grow in Nucleoside Free medium Culture a Colony of cells Grow in 0.05 uM Mtx Culture a Colony of cells

Methotrexate (MTX) Selection Grow in 0.25 uM Mtx Culture a Colony of cells Grow in 5.0 uM Mtx Culture a Colony of cells Foreign gene expressed in high level in CHO cells

Mammalian Systems Disadvantages Advantages Selection takes time (weeks for set-up) Cell culture is only sustainable for limited period of time Set-up is very time consuming, costly, modest yields Can express large proteins (>50 kD) Correct glycosylation & signal peptide removal, generates authentic proteins Has chaperonins to help fold “tough” prtns

Conclusion Isolation of gene of interest Introduction of gene to expression vector Transformation into host cells Growth of cells through fermentation Isolation & purification of protein
